The book is a practical aid for surgeons when deciding on a surgical regimen, for physicians when weighing for various treatment alternatives and for physiotherapists, occupational therapists and other paramedical disciplines as well as patients when looking for information on the effects of operative treatment in rheumatoid disease.
